Friday, while loading a train with
logs on the Watson Lands Lumber Co.'s
property in the woods above May burg,
tbe train broke away and a bad smash-up
occurred. Tbe road bas a pretty heavy
grade trom tbe woods to tbe mill, and
whon tbe train of eight cars bad boon
loaded the great weight parted the chain
which held it and the cars started down
the track, gathering momeutum with
each turn of tbe wheels until a velocity of
about 50 miles per hour was reached, and
at this rate of speed the train came into
Mayburg yards a distance of a mile and a
half, where it piled up in a confused mass
of wreckage. When tbe workmen on the
cars found their train bad gotten beyond
control tbey jumped off and thus saved
their lives. No one was hurt, which is
rather remarkable considering the ter
rific speed with which the train came
into the mill yards, where more or less
uieu are generally stationed. The los- to
the company in tbe smashing of the cars,
etc., will foot up about $1,000.

How Coleman Eluded the Bear.
While bears are not supposed to be
plentiful in Forest county at this season
of the year, and at least not doing much
roaming about, it will be well for trout
fishermen to be a little on the lookout
Just the same, Jake Coleman, of Oak
dale, Pa., a former Forest county boy,
takes great delight in returning at least
once a year to bis old haunts and com
muning with nature while interviewing
tbe trout streams of this locality, but wo
doubt whether be will ever again have
tbe temerity to tackle the job alone. One
day last week be was pursuing bis favor
ite pastime up on a branch of Ross run,
and bad succeeded in lifting out a dozen
or so of the legal size. While hunched
down on tbe bank of the stream at a nice
pool and expecting every moment that a
big one would take hold, he heard a
"snort" that sounded something like the
grunt of a bog. Casting his eye over his
shoulder what should he see but a mon
strous big bear, reared up on bis "bunk
ers" as if ready to make a dash at him.
There was a dilemma at once, and Jake
was a part of It. Just then something
took hold of his line. Now, Jake makes
no pretention toward any knowledge of
bear and their habits, but be does know
all about the bite of a trout, size included,
and what to do nnder the circumstances
was a poser. There was little time to
think. With tin hair raising his hat at
one extremity and tbe fish tugging at the
other end, something had to be done and
that quickly. Coleman did the most
natural thing landed the trout. And
then a thought struck him. He'd make
up with the bear. Throwing the fish at
the bear's feet the ferocious animal de
voured It at a single gulp, but that did
not satisfy bim, and soon the fisherman
had another, and this be also fed to the
bear. In tbe meantime be thought he
would move on a little. Along came the
bear also, and as Jake stopped to "drop
in" at another pool the bear resumed bis
former position but at much closer range.
After throwing out a lew more trout
Jake found that the bear was still quite
hungry, and thinking if he would till
bim up at once the bear might leave bim,
be unbooked bis basket and threw that.
With a snort the bear ripped tbe lid off
and qnickly devoured tbe whole catch,
but still refused to leave, but on tbe con
trary began ambling up closer, and with
bis hair now raising so last as to almost
pull themselves out of root Coleman
made another quick decision. He pushed
tbe butt of bis pole toward tbe bear, and
the bear quietly seized it, sat down on bis
bunkers and began to fish and Jake
"took up over the hill."

the farm on which tbey lived for nearly
half a century, and wbere the father died
about 20 years ago. For many years
Jobn followed rafting on the creek and
river, and was a bard worker, enduring
many hardships and exposures, to which
no doubt the breaking down of his nat
urally strong constitution is attributable.
About thirty years ago he was united in
marriage with Miss Nancy M. Whitman.
To this union six children wero born,
four of whom with the widow, survive,
as follows: Frederick, of Tylersburg; John
of Nebraska; Mrs. Charles Taylor, of Ty
lersburg, and Selden, at home. Other
survivors are his mother, aged 03 years,
wbo has made her home with bis family
for some years; one brother Nicholas, of
New Wilmington, Pa.; three sisters, Mary
Weant and Mrs. Christine Lusher, living
on the old homestead farm, and Mrs.
Louisa Smith, of Tylersburg.
